We've only had a few New Zealand Sauvignon Blancs, but it's clear they have a way with them down there. This wine was tasty and had some bite and grip to it that so many otherwise good American Sauvignon Blancs lack. It displayed smoky, sweet hay and citrus aromas, and crisp but rich flavors of pink grapefruit and white peaches. Good length, too. - HK 2005-05-27
